A problem I've had this semester that has been harder to overcome now than at any other point in my life is being in the present moment. It's not unusual for me to think about the future, but at this current point in life, it's been harder to bring myself back to the present. I'm thinking about grad school, careers, traveling, relationships, and all sorts of things that indeed are very important, but it causes me to forget about where I am now. In turn, I become anxious and unappreciative of things in my present. I would encourage everyone this week to notice where you are. Don't allow yourself to act on auto-pilot, but have awareness of the beauty in life there is to appreciate, the strengths and weaknesses within yourself, the people to love where you are now, and the things which bring wholeness to you physically, spiritually, intellectually, and emotionally.
